Bread Of Life / 2 Kings 4 Sermons from Parker DC
-
- Christianity
It's amazing how many miracles and teachings in the New Testament are foreshadowed in the Old. In this text from 2 Kings 4:38-44, Pastor Joey emphasizes that Jesus is the Bread of Life (see also John 6) that is pictured in the manna of the Exodus, the miracles here of the soup and the bread, and the feeding of the 5,000 in the gospels. God uses Elisha to redeem the deadly soup (also redeeming the labor) in the first short story. Then he uses the prophet to provide basic provision to the prophets and the people in a miracle that is very similar to the miraculous feedings by Jesus. We learn of God's sufficiency and provision here. Nothing in our life is unredeemable when Jesus steps onto the scene! Message preached on Sunday, April 21, 2024 as part fourteen in the "Peaks & Valleys" sermon series.
